My Story

Hey, friends! My name is Bethany and I am a pediatric nurse in the Midwest. This January, I, along with a small team of peers in the medical field, am heading over to India. Our purpose there is to come alongside community leaders and facilitate health care and education within impoverished rural communities in India.

The Impact

The impact of this campaign at this point is limitless. Our dream is to aid local leaders in creating self-sustaining, affordable health care for their community. Ideally, once one community is up and running, we would move to a neighboring community and start the vision over again as needed.

Within impoverished communities in India, affordable health care is simply non-existent. Our goal is to change that. Along with providing basic health care, we would be able to join the larger fight against life threatening diseases prominent in India such as AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria.

What I Need

The total cost of this first trip for me is $3,000. This includes my plane ticket, immunizations, work visa application fee, and transportation/lodging fees upon arrival. I need to raise the above amount by December 26, 2011, which is why I need your help!

You can donate easily using this site, or for a tax deductible option, contact me at bethany.hamm@gmail.com for more information.
